211 Worship the deceased mother
Back in Cangshan Town, it was almost dark.
Xu Xingguang and Huo Wen'an invited Ying Ziyao to their wedding, but Ying Ziyao was a person who didn't like to join in the fun, so he didn't go. Although Sister Linlin knew about the existence of Dr. Win, she had never seen it.
Knowing that Ying Ziyao would live in Xu Xingguang's house during the Chinese New Year, she re-cleaned the house where Xu Qingnian used to live, bought a new bed, and put on new sheets and quilts.
Seeing Ying Ziyao's deity, Sister Linlin blushed slightly, and muttered to Xu Xingguang: "Doctor Ying is so handsome." ”
Xu Xingguang laughed at her: "What? Fancy it? ”
Hearing this, Sister Linlin hurriedly shook her head, "No, I won't get married again in my life." But, handsome guy, who wouldn't love to watch it? Sister Linlin told Xu Xingguang: "Miss Xu, I have to go back to my mother's house for the New Year's dinner, and I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of Dr. Win." ”
"He doesn't need you to take care of it, he can cook himself." Xu Xingguang didn't treat Ying Ziyao as a distinguished guest, she said: "This is his home, he is home, and it is not rude for him to cook by himself." ”
"That'll do."
Xu Xingguang took Ying Ziyao to the room on the second floor, "This room has been lived in for a while before, but the bed and quilt cover have been replaced with new ones, Uncle Shi, can you see if there is anything that needs to be changed?" ”
Ying Ziyao is a person with a keen sense of smell, but there is no unpleasant smell in this room, and it is obvious that Sister Linlin has cleaned it well.
"No, you can live." Ying Ziyao pointed to the elevator door next to the wall and wondered, "Why is there an elevator installed here?" ”
"The person who used to live here was my grandfather of the Xu family. He suffered a stroke and was paralyzed and had difficulty moving, so he was given an elevator. ”
Ying Ziyao also heard about Xu Xingguang and the Xu family.
"Xu Qingnian." Ying Ziyao still remembers Xu Zeqing's father's name, he said: "He is a teacher, and his private morality is fine, but he is a little old-fashioned." There was no need to ask, Ying Ziyao could also think of what the old man had done, so Xu Xingguang sent him back to the Xu family.
"Will you go to Xu's house this Chinese New Year?" Ying Ziyao put the luggage on the floor, opened it, and asked Xu Xingguang while packing up.
Shaking his head, Xu Xingguang said: "It's all broken, what are you going to do?" ”
"As for the old man." She said: "I asked Sister Linlin to send him some money and gifts tomorrow, and it will be regarded as a New Year's greeting." But she won't go to Xu's house again.
Nodding, Ying Ziyao said: "Life is short, do things as you like, and there is no need to wronged yourself for some rules." ”
"Alright, you go and get busy, don't worry about me."
"Hmm."
Xu Xingguang is still busy tonight.
It's going to be the New Year, and the veterans of the Yaotian Escort Team are also going back for the New Year. But the medicine field can't be left unattended, they can only take turns to go back for the New Year.
Xu Xingguang carried a canvas bag and rode her little electric donkey to the dormitory building at the foot of Cangshan Mountain.
The two teams were preparing for the handover, and it happened that everyone was there, and when the bridge saw that Xu Xingguang was back, the captain Cheng Shiguang hurriedly waved at Xu Xingguang and shouted, "Boss, when did you come back?" ”
"Just arrived tonight."
Xu Xingguang stopped the battery car and said to Cheng Shiguang: "Call everyone over, it's the New Year, and the boss is here to send you warmth." ”
Cheng Shiguang laughed, and a whistle sounded, calling out all the more than ten people in the escort team.
There are 16 people in the convoy, 12 men and 4 women. In addition, there is also a pair of middle-aged in-laws who help cook, they are the eldest brother and sister-in-law of a team member, called Brother Qing.
18 people lined up in two rows, and whoever Xu Xingguang called, he stepped forward to receive the red envelope.
Their job is actually very dangerous, and they have to deal with some criminals who want to steal herbs every once in a while, doing dangerous work, and naturally getting a high salary, with a monthly salary of about 20,000 yuan.
Captain Cheng Shiguang received an annual salary of one million.
Xu Xingguang gave them all red envelopes, eight thousand eight for each of the two cooks, and 12,000 for the other teammates. If there are children in the family, one thousand two are also given to each child.
When I got the red envelope, everyone's hearts were very hot.
After handing out the red envelope, Xu Xingguang walked to the platform where Cheng Shiguang often spoke.
Seeing that her expression was a little serious, not as close as usual, everyone quieted down and didn't dare to speak.
"Our world is in crisis, you should all know about it."
As soon as Xu Xingguang opened his mouth, everyone's faces became heavy.
A male member of the team said softly: "My child is four years old this year, and he received the mutant vaccine six months ago. ”
Another female team member also said: "The second child in my family was also vaccinated with the mutant vaccine the year before last. ”
None of the others spoke.
Many of their relatives have also received the mutant vaccine.
This crisis of mutation is a crisis of the entire secular world.
"After the year, I will go to the Inheritance Ying Family to participate in the Hundred Medicine Society, and strive to get the opportunity to go to the Divine Martial Realm. I will try to find an antidote to the genetic mutation as much as I can. ”
"After I leave, Cangshan Medicine Field, as well as Cangshan Town, I have to ask you to take care of it."
Hearing this, Cheng Shiguang and the others clenched their fists at the same time and promised loudly: "Boss, rest assured, Cangshan Town is our second home, and we will definitely protect Cangshan Medicine Field and Cangshan Town." ”
"Thank you!"
*
Huo Wen'an arrived in Cangshan Town in the early morning of the next day, and after breakfast, he and Xu Xingguang pasted couplets at the courtyard gates of No. 219 and No. 218 buildings, and then drove to the Yujiang River.
There is a river beach under the Yujiang River Bridge, and people come here every summer for wild swimming and night fishing.
Parking on the side of the road, the two men carried incense candles and fire paper along the rugged downhill road to the river beach. Today, the sun is warm, some people are camping and barbegining on this side of the river, and the appearance of Huo Wenan and Xu Xingguang, two handsome men and beautiful women, has attracted the attention of those young people.
Seeing that they were carrying the money paper used for the sacrifice in their hands, the young people were a little surprised, but they did not think that they were acting suspiciously.
In this great river of Chongqing, I don't know how many people are submerged, and every New Year's holiday, those who can't find the bodies of their families will come to the river beach to worship their dead family members.
Huo Wen'an and Xu Xingguang lit incense candles and inserted them in the river sand.
The two knelt on the ground and lit the fire.
The paper was almost empty of ashes, and when it burned, it was full of fire, and it was blown into the void by the breeze, and it quickly disappeared cleanly.
After burning the paper and kowtowing respectfully to the river, Xu Xingguang held Huo Wen'an's hand and said to himself: "Mom, this is Huo Wen'an." You should know him, do you remember the little brother at Aunt Huo's house next door? He is Huo Wen'an. ”
"We're married."
Huo Wen'an smiled slightly, clasped Xu Xingguang's five fingers, and said, "Aunt Mo, don't worry, I will take care of Xingguang." ”
Xu Xingguang said again: "There have been a lot of things in the past few years, I don't have time to come to see you, in a few years, when we have a child, we will bring your grandson to worship you." Mom, if you have a spirit in heaven, bless my wish to come true. ”
She poured a bowl of wine, sprinkled it on the ground, and groaned, "Daughter, I only wish that the world would be peaceful and the people would live and work in peace and contentment." ”
She doesn't have many wishes, but they have great ones.
After worshipping Mo Yinshu, Huo Wen'an took Xu Xingguang to worship Huo Qinyou. The townspeople of Cangshan Town can be buried in the Cangshan Cemetery after death, but Huo Qinyou has not been recognized by the townspeople of Cangshan Town until his death.
She had a short temper, a foul-smelling mouth, and mistreated children, and no townspeople would carry her to her burial after her death.
Later, it was Huo Wen'an's family who went to kowtow and invited the townspeople to help bury him.
She was buried at the foot of the mountain behind Cangshan, facing the wild swampy lake. Song Chi was hiding here at the beginning, and he was rescued by Xu Xingguang and them.
Huo Qinyou's tombstone is very low-key, there is only a small mound, and there is a tombstone in front of the mound. On the day of Huo Qinyou's burial, the tombstone was not ready, and there was only a small mound.
After the funeral, Huo Wen'an spent money to buy a tombstone from the stonemason shop in the town and asked the stonemason to help chisel and engrave the inscription.
At that time, the town's stonemason shop was opened below the town's middle school, not far from Huo Wen'an's house.
The stonemason knew who Huo Qinyou was, and he refused to chisel the words 'so Xianyu' on Huo Qinyou's tombstone. He said, "Huo boy, do you know what Xianyan means? ”
How could Huo Wen'an not know.
Therefore, Xian Yan means that this deceased lady was a respected mother during her lifetime.
"Therefore, your mother only occupies the first word of these three words. What she did deserves the word 'obvious'? Worthy of the status of 'mother'? ”
"I'll chisel five words for you at most, if you don't agree, then forget it."
Later, Huo Wen'an put the tombstone engraved with 'Huo Qinyou's Tomb' in front of the small grave.
Huo Qinyou's tombstone, no one has come to worship for many years, the road is overgrown with weeds, Huo Wen'an walked in front with a machete, and carved a fairly smooth path for Xu Xingguang.
"Here we are."
Xu Xingguang looked up and saw a tombstone standing on the high ridge.
The mound behind the tombstone was overgrown with weeds and trees, and the tombstone was covered with moss and thorn vines.
The inscription is almost indecipherable.
"Do you want to clean up the weeds from the grave?" Xu Xingguang asked Huo Wen'an.
Huo Wenan shook his head, "There's no need. ”
Huo Wenan used a knife to clean the moss and thorn vines on the tombstone, and he took out an electronic light from the bag and lit it in front of the tombstone. It's next to the woods, and for fear of causing a wildfire, these electronic lights are used.
Xu Xingguang subconsciously wanted to kneel down and burn the paper, but Huo Wenan stopped her, "Don't kneel to her." ”
Xu Xingguang glanced at Huo Wen'an, and then changed his knees to squatting.
After burning the paper and seeing that the fire was completely extinguished, Huo Wenan led Xu Xingguang away. As soon as the two of them finished walking the chaotic trail, they looked up and saw an off-road vehicle parked next to the lake road, and You Jiaoyang happened to get out of the car with his things.
Huo Xin got down from the co-pilot and was a little surprised to see Huo Wen'an and Xu Xingguang standing on the rugged road.
"Little Sin, you went to worship her?"
Huo Xin didn't expect Huo Wen'an to take Xu Xingguang to worship Huo Qinyou. She thought that Huo Wen'an would never go to Huo Qinyou's grave again in her life.
